In this video I’m sharing 3 very common things to avoid doing when you have natural hair. These things are so common, you may not even realize you’re doing them, either way pull up a chair, or keep sitting where you are (lol) and enjoy!!

    I realized I can't thoroughly wash my type 4 hair without sectioning it. It's just impossible to get ALL of my hair and every part of my scalp clean without sectioning it (and of course, detangling every section). Sectioning my hair into 4 parts every wash day has been a HUGE game-changer for me.

    I can't use coconut oil. It dries my hair out. My sister told me that the grease I had used my WHOLE life and grew shoulder length thick hair from was bad and I needed to use coconut oil. Long story short, my hair broke off, I had to cut it and as I was now married with 4 kids I didn't feel like putting in the work to grow it out again for 4 yrs. But I started growing it out again last August and have retained 4 inches with just twist, oh and yes, I use GREASE!

    I’m late to the party, but I’ve learned that the needs of my hair continuously evolve as the months and years pass. My regimen was one way during my transition to natural and the DAY I cut my relaxed ends off, I had to relearn how to handle my hair. Sometimes when I try a product and it doesn’t work, I’ll keep it around for a while and my hair will love and need it later. I’ve had to make continuing adjustments to my routine from when my hair was shoulder length, to now that it’s almost waist length. That’s why it’s a “journey”. You have to remain flexible and vigilant. When your hair tells you that it needs something different, listen.

    I used to spray water on my hair and seal in the moisture with olive oil every 2 to 3 days. My hair dried out in a day. I have learned that I have to oil my scalp and ends every 2 to 3 days and use Olive Oil Moisturizing Lotion on my hair. My hair loves this product. This routine retains the moisture of my hair and I have less shedding and breakage. For my scalp I make my own herb oils using moringa, rosemary, amla, fenugreek, brahm and aloe vera. The best detangler for me is the aloe vera leaf. I deep condition my hair once a month with Dove deep conditioning cream adding jamaican caster oil, my own herb oils, glycerin, honey, vitamin E and peppermint essential oil. I have also learned that I lose less hair if I finger tangle my hair and blow dry my roots after each wash day.

    I've learned that protective styling with extensions is not for me! I would get my hair cornrowed and wear wigs 25/7 and have dry hair for almost two months at a time - but no more! I did the big chop on my natural hair last July (my hair was about 1 cm long) and one year later, even after neglecting my hair like crazy, my hair is now 5 inches long, and that makes me wonder about my hair's true potential - all I have to do is take care of it and I'm sure I'll see even more growth within a year's time. I've started a regimen of washing my hair weekly and using an aloe vera gel+peppermint oil spritz, Camille Rose leave-in conditioner, and sealing with Kuza's Indian Hemp Grease. I'm on a journey to growing my natural hair and I can't wait to see what God has in store for me!

    I have to wash my hair twice a week on a scheduled to keep it looking good and feeling moisturized. I wash it with a moisturizing shampoo one day and use a co-wash the other day. But, once a month I'm sure to use a clarifying shampoo to start with a clean slate. That always makes a difference and keeps my fine, low porosity hair from getting any build-up and no shedding and also is helping me to retain length. 👍🏻🤗🥰

    I’ve learned that once I remoisturise my hair 3-4 days after my first initial moisturising routine on wash day. It is redundant for me to keep remoisturising my hair after that because it starts to feel like it’s parched. And what my hair needs is real hydration(water) so wash day HASSSS to be every week and if I’m busy I can only push it to a week and a half after that I risk damage to my ends. It’s like they become brittle and really weak after that point

    @8:09 To answer your question, with my hair, I have learned: • Combs break my hair strands (especially when soaking wet) so finger-detangling 100% of the time is best • Putting oil on my scalp makes my scalp itchy and causes acne bumps to develop, so I can't do that. Instead, I spray my scalp with diluted tea tree oil and peppermint essential oil or even aloe vera juice after shampooing to keep my scalp under control • The foam and suds from shampoo make finger-detangling my hair super easy and also makes it so I don't have to section my hair anymore on wash day because of how the foam sort of acts like a glue and keeps my clumped, detangled curls together. This allows me to wash my hair in 20-25 minutes instead of it taking the usual 45-60 minutes when I would try to bother with sectioning beforehand. I'm still learning more about my hair, but these 3 things have been amazing learning lessons I've picked up on for my own hair. Awesome video 🙂.
